More about the book
Set against the backdrop of early 20th-century society, the narrative follows Professor Henry Higgins as he transforms Eliza Doolittle, a Cockney flower girl, into a refined lady. This journey not only highlights themes of class and identity but also critiques social issues such as education and privilege. Inspired by Greek mythology, the story explores the dynamics of love and power between the characters. George Bernard Shaw, a notable playwright and social critic, masterfully weaves these elements, making the tale both timeless and relevant.
